without a doubt the cape fishing, wellfleet to rp was a big disapointment for me this year.stared off memorial day with some decent fish.one good morning right after the 4th of july. fished everyday and night in august for a few keeper up to 15lbs.now on the other hand i did a couple of trips down to LI to my old stomping ground and did very well with fish up to 35lbs.i think the lack of large bait , such as fllounder herring bunker and the like the fish are heading north are going right past the cape to NH and maine. a good portion of the fish stayed in NJ till mid june on the mass of bunker that were there than they stayed off the south shore of LI. the back bays were loaded with peanuts and adult bunker this year.i think RI also had a good yearform what i have seen on here.
